Base Prices with Bid-OďŹ€. All cattle will be pre-priced with a â€œbase priceâ€? ranging from $2,500 to $5,000 for most bulls. A listing of all prices will be available on sale day. Bulls will not be sold on sale day below these minimum prices. Beginning at 1:00 p.m., buyers and selling prices will be determined for each bull and each heifer in the respective sale order. At that time, if only one person indicates their interest in an animal at that animalâ€™s base price (by raising their hand and indicating so), then that person will be identiďŹ ed as the buyer by the sale coordinator. If more than one person is interested in an animal, a slow-speed bid-oďŹ€ will be conducted using $100 to $250 increments by the sale coordinator to determine the high bidder and oďŹƒcial selling price. No actual auctioneer or ringmen will be present.

â€˘

Sale order. The oďŹƒcial order that cattle will be sold in will be available on sale day. The sale will begin with CSU Angus bulls, followed by CSU Hereford bulls, guestsâ€™ bulls, and guestsâ€™ heifers. Beginning at 1:00 p.m., the sale coordinator will go through the sale order only once using the method described previously. Any CSU cattle not sold on sale day will continue to be available at their base price after the sale until all are sold by the end of the bull selling season.

â€˘

No On-line Broadcast. In an eďŹ€ort to reduce costs, this yearâ€™s sale wonâ€™t be broadcast via the internet or satellite video. If you seek assistance in purchasing a bull, but are unable to attend, please contact Jason Ahola, Jesse French or Kevin Pond (contact info on inside front cover).

Colorado State University will be oďŹ€ering 27 yearling Hereford and Angus bulls. All bulls will have been evaluated for fertility, BVD-PI, feed eďŹƒciency (with the exception of the four National Western Stock Show Hereford bulls), Pulmonary Arterial Pressure (PAP) by Dr. Tim Holt and GeneSeekâ€™s Genetic ProďŹ ler (GGP-HD) Test. Results for PAP, fertility and the GGP-HD test will be available sale day.

See pictures and videos of all lots at www.csubulls.colostate.edu. An additional 20 bulls & 15 Angus heifers will be oďŹ€ered from guests. As a service to buyers, more cattle will be oďŹ€ered for sale in one location on sale day via these guests to enable greater selection. Detailed performance information (pedigrees, EPDs, etc.) will be available sale day, and will also be available in advance (including pictures on most lots) at www.csubulls.colostate.edu or by contacting these individual breeders: 191 Livestock Co.

6HHGVWRFN 0HUFKDQGLVLQJ 7HDP *UHHWLQJV IURP WKH WHDP This year has ï¬‚own by and has certainly been a busy one for the team! October began our whirlwind of events starting with halter breaking and then showing a pen of Hereford bulls and heifers at the National Western Stock Show in Denver, Colo. Shortly after that, we attended the Colorado Cattlemenâ€™s Association Mid-Winter Conference, also in Denver. Then, at the beginning of February, we road-tripped across the country to Nashville, Tenn., for the National Cattlemenâ€™s Beef Association Annual Convention. Since returning from our trips, we have kept plenty busy preparing for our sale, organizing the sale catalog, and clipping and picturing all of our bulls.

&68 6HHGVWRFN 7HDP

We would like to thank our families, faculty, sponsors, past members and buyers for the support they have shown us all throughout the year. Without them, our adventures and success wouldnâ€™t be possible. From all of us on the team, we hope you enjoy our sale, educational symposium, food and cattle!

Thank you for your support! 7KH &68 6HHGVWRFN 0HUFKDQGLVLQJ 7HDP

&DUVRQ *XHQ]L Carson is originally from Sterling, Colo., where he was raised on his familyâ€™s farm and ranch. His family farms corn, wheat and sugar beets, and has a herd of commercial Angus cows. Before coming to CSU, Carson was very active in 4-H, Farm Bureau and FFA, including being a 2010-2011 FFA State Oï¬ƒcer. Carson is currently a junior at CSU double majoring in ag business and animal science. Upon graduating, he plans to return to his familyâ€™s operation (they made it clear he couldnâ€™t come back without out a piece of paper proving he had graduated). Being on the Seedstock Team, Carson has most enjoyed getting to know his teammates as well as getting to interact with leaders in the beef industry. He is also co-chair of the Data Committee for this yearâ€™s team.
